Guys, I'm not in an actual lockdown. It was a reference to how the first Kenshi video which came out when lockdown was happening and I binged 100+hours of it. Enough with the weird conspiracy stuff.

The game so immersive I now refuse to eat anything that is not in cube form.

This is gonna make me play kenshi for another 200 hours for sure

This is now the undisputed cannon lore of Kenshi for me. Sure beats most of the stories I have had in the game.

I like the idea that Agnu telling Beep that they're a female was a joke and that in your world, Agnu becoming the 'empress' is a long-running gag

I like your cooking segments, they're basically a half-time show. Have you ever considered making a compilation of them? Or a playlist of just the cooking segments?

The mention of Morrowind reminds me how in that game you are a ‘chosen one’ but because you *become* the Nerevarine through your actions - there’s been many failed ‘heroes’ before you as well who also fit the bill of the prophecy

I gotta say, your campaign of trying to show everyone that anyone can cook is some legendary material!

everytime I feel awful, you end up dropping a video and I feel like I have something to get excited for. thank you for the years.

I'm incorporating this as lore in a d&d game. LONG LIVE EMPEROR BEEP!

I giggled seeing Rich Evans, Jay, and Mike in the companions list. And I lost my absolute shit tens of minutes later when Rich became the slayer of the Mad Emperor. Glorious.

Leviathan Coast is a pretty good place to set up a permanent home. You only ever get raided by cannibals and I found out you can just put all your guys on the roof of a building and the cannibals can't find them.

Probably the best Kenshi story I’ve watched. Truly an amazing video and an incredible quality which Kenshi deserves in terms of playthroughs. I enjoyed this very much, thank you for the story.

Not exactly my favorite type of game to play, but I will happily spend hours watching someone else do it. The enthusiasm is infectious. Keep up the great work!

I often do my makeup while watching your videos and I just happened to be admiring my finished look while you did your sign off. Thank you for the encouragement on my art, and the company while I make it 💜

Kenshi is the game that just keeps giving. Years after playing this game I still almost automatically click when I see someone covering it again. Its a game that brings forth dreams and imagination, and gives them a dirty dusty covering, and then lets you die before you ever achieve them.

i'm glad you mentioned Burn, they're one of my favorite unique recruits I just wish they had more dialogue expanding on their concept which is.. really fascinating. They somehow stayed sane enough to NOT wipe their memories like com on!

"Why do you do cooking segments?" Because i want to lmao total respect dude keep it up

Seriously, with the right script and voice-over, you can pass this story off as a historical documentary.

Never understood what was so "difficult" about cooking. Unless you're trying to cook for a high class restaurant where it has to look super duper presentable, 90% of cooking is prepare ingredients (usually just cutting), mix everything, and apply heat. I've cooked for my family for 15 years with nothing but my mother teaching me 5 recipes and learning everything else from recipes I'd find from magazines or googling after eating something from a restaurant.

I loved your journey through Kenshi! It's such an insane game, I've tried to get into it a couple of times but its just so 𝘒𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘩𝘪. I admire your cooking segments, it's a nice aside to the videos. Keep doing what you do!!

This is for sure the best Kenshi playthrough i've watched here on the tube, amazing work Charlatan. Favorite moment is probably all the consequences piling up at 1:28:45, i love these moments of there being actual consequences to accomplishing even the best intentions.

Watching a man playing kenshi is fun, but when you started cooking i knew this was gonna be my favourite video on the whole platform. Thank you.

I absolutely love Beak Things, they are such a cool predator design and feel incredibly realistic. They're not some overly complicated outlandish monster that you'd see in many other games they feel like something that could definitely exist in a harsh world. I mean, they basically are giraffes which do in fact exist IRL and those fuckers fight each other with their necks as is despite being herbivorous. Being a bird-giraffe combo essentially absolutely makes sense and the way they attack would be absurdly effective, we are quite frankly lucky they're fictional and I love how innocent they look, at first glance you would definitely think "Oh it's a giraffe thing I bet they're chill...wait why is it running at me" I didn't go in to Kenshi blind but I had no idea just how insanely strong they were until I saw them ripping apart some bandits or something. Top tier creature design.

CLEAR YOUR SCHEDULES!

This was legendary and really made me consider (eventually) getting into Kenshi. Also it was somehow very nostalgic, reminding me of the post-apocalyptic anime I fondly remember watching as a teen mainly Gurren Lagann and Casshern Sins. Your storytelling was superb and really brought the gameplay to life.

I'm doing a Beep solo run. I started off by recruiting Beep at Mingrel and kicking out Not Beep 2. Then i sold iron ore from the local iron drill, bought a house and after an in-game month of grinding Beep was a professional armorsmith. Then i traveled a little and when i returned home i was unarmed with a metal stick by a fogman, the other 3 limbs i've intentionally let to be eaten off and replaced with skeleton limbs. A lot more grinding later and after having a 1v1 with the Bugmaster (i didn't capture him, but i did take his sword), i have just ran into Lord Phoenix's throne room and got beaten up. I was put in prison and they took my edge 2 guardless katana, so i took their leader after an epic 1v1. There is a lot of details missing, like cannibal hunting or that time when i disguised myself as a paladin and bought a small shack in Holy Nation capital and no one noticed that i was a cyber-hiver.

I don't think that any other game today tell such epic stories as Kenshi does. Maybe Dwarf fortress can rival it, but this is where the list ends. As you said, your story is only one in hundreds of other stories Kenshi can tell, but it is yours ,and what fabulous story it is!

That's gotta be the first time I'm seeing anybody actually playing Kenshi in a... normal way...

that first kenshi video was how i found your channel and i've watched every video of yours since. keep it up broski 👍

Thanks for making these videos. The amount of joy it brings me to get off work and watch you play kenshi, whilst explaining it in a brief summary really makes my day

been hyped for this one since your first video on Kenshi came out - appreciate all the work that went into this!

Oh damn it... THere goes another 300 hours put into Kenshi. I hate that I love it, and I love that I hate it

This is a game way too daunting to me but man I’m glad you made this video Charl so that I can play it vicariously thru u

Great video. If you are partial to dynamic 4X and RTS style games, I would highly recommend the X series of games. It has the same kind of world dynamics as Kenshi but is a sci-fi economy and combat sim series (X4: Foundations is the latest title). You can get up to all kinds of funny shenanigans.

Just wanted to leave a comment and say, this is the best kenshi video I've ever seen. Awesome narrative, good show of gameplay and paced like an actual movie. 10/10 content.

Hands down the best Kenshi playthrough I've watched. I wish I could have a half decent computer to play it. Thank you again for such a good video, for your great art, and for damn fine cuisine recipes and tips

This is the video essay, I’m saying it now! Everyone should see this video atleast once even if they don’t understand video games they could understand the story you tell!

Time to try and get into kenshi again, game looks so fun. But the beginning is so harsh and daunting.

This was amazing. I have never seen a full playthrough of the game before and I don't think there could have been a better video to experience it. Thanks

Pretty sweet vid! I'm having high hopes for K2. This one is a perfect case of something bigger than the sum of its parts.

such a great video! Ending sounds a lot like black company books, and it is cool :) and ending monologue about art is great!

Every Kenshi playthough is an epic tale that writes itself. I love this game that i've never even played for all the amazing stories it helps create

I've just finished watching. Thank you for sharing this to everyone. This truly is a testament as to how stories can be made in Kenshi with just a little bit of imagination and a whole lot of fun.

Omfg, he's made another kenshi video!

I really loved Kenshi. I usually just have someone train stealth, thievery, and lockpicking. It may be hard, but you actually can steal from the Armor King. I also liked to visit the skeleton shop outside of Black Desert city, where I can "buy" some high grade weapons.

This actually really opened me up to watching this series. I knew its 2 or 3 longform episodes in the last one, so I was putting off watching it. Glad I can start from the new beginning

this was an amazing experience in every sense i can think of, thanks for the ride

Metal Beep Rising: Revengeance

This is Beep's world, we are just living in it

I almost never sit through an almost 2 hour video, especially of a game I've never played but this was the exception. Seriously amazing stuff, much LOVE.

I randomly stumbled upon this video and very much enjoyed the random cooking segment in between. Love it, thank you.

Know it's serious when the "Beep" in the title has an uppercase B.

Lets mine some Copper Ore baby

cooking segment went crazy, and kept me engaged. Amazing work!

Bruh, this was amazing. Thank you for your hard work sir. Watched and liked 🧡

Do it for Beep Beep 2.0!

Why is he still in lockdown?

Been looking forward to this vid for years. one of the first vid that brought me to your channel. happy it did, cheers!

This is by far one of the best videos I have seen on KZfaq! I have wanted to play kenshi for a while but don’t want to get completely enthralled in to a new game before my a levels. You have created a video to rival the story telling of movies and I’m so happy that I can experience the game through this medium. You have thanked us for watching but I’m sure we all owe you a thank you for the masterpiece that you have made. Like you said this is art! And better yet this was the first video of yours I got to watch whilst randomly looking for a longer video to listen to while cooking😂😂 Thanks again I hope youtube goes well.

awesome video, had me hooked the entire way through and loved the cooking section

Good video, funny story and pretty well written characters so it was an enjoyable experience.

What I love about Kenshi is you can create your own story. You can tell your story on KZfaq or to your friends and it's actually interesting, you could create a movie with YOUR own story, you can do whatever you want and the mods let you do even more. It's probably my favorite game, I love Kenshi

Never watched your content before, love the cooking segment. Also I watched the entire video and was fully 100000% entertained. Good job.

Im so gratwful I found your page, your cooking seg threw me in for a loop but now Im staying because its too entertaining🔥

u got my subscription. I love things like this. Games like kenshi that allow you to write the narrative for your character and then having a veery creative youtuber with a penchant for decent jokes you end up with a great video....keep em coming,

Never seen your channel before, never seen or even heard of Kenshi before but this was amazing, the game seems great and I loved the script you wrote as it explored the story of kenshi while creating your own story within the game or through the game.

Had this playing in the background while doing some kenshi of my own, but I started hearing some incredible passion for cooking and had to tune back in fully. Now I gotta subscribe for more cooking/gaming content 🔥

Hell yeah, I've been waiting for this. you got me into Kenshi and now I got 1000 hours.

This was a very entertaining video. I also enjoyed the cooking break. Thank you for the upload.

Dude watching this was such a fun experience thanks for making amazing content!!!

Omg Hype, love Kenshi videos so much. It leads to such great stories.

I have seen a lot of Kenshi videos, a lot of series and I have to say that this one is the best one of all of them, truly great work my men! I hope we can get a this kinds of experience in Kenshi 2

I like how Rich, Mike and Jay is on a quest fo conquering slaver cities instead of fixing VCR and reviewing movies :D

This was a phenomenal video. I hope this just absolutely blows up for you. Liked, commented, subscribed. Thank you sir.

Never stop cooking segments, i really cook by your recipes!

This was a beautiful video, thank you

This video is awesome, thank you for the wonderful work you did

Great video, thank you very much for making it. I cannot wait until you make the starter/how to videos. Cheers.

I have never seen your videos till now but I am down with the cooking segments. That looked good.

Dope. I’ve been waiting for a good video on Kenshi, Little One

Awesome video, absolutely worth the wait.

Wow this was the best random recommendation I've ever seen. Thanks KZfaq. I really enjoy this vid even thou I know nothing about Kenshi. Can't wait to check your other works 😃

This was definitely worth the wait! I had seen Sseth's video and knew this game was pretty nuts, but I didn't know that it went that deep. Molded or otherwise. Holy cow!

Thank you for a long, wonderful video my good man! Kenshi is one of my most underplayed yet close to heart games. the scripting that went into this one video must have taken almost as long as the video itself, close to zero downtime on having something interesting to watch, which also speaks volumes on your editing. Keep up the good work and I hope you're fully compensated for your hard work and dedication! Cheers!

First video I've seen from you and it's making me excited for Kenshi 2. Also, love the cooking segments

Cheers mate this was great to watch

There's something about this video that fills me with tons of emotions and i am very close to crying because of it, this story is worthy of a nine book saga.

"Everything else can be dealt with using science or good old fashioned violence." No truer words have ever been spoken.

🥲😰😢😭😭😭Your words at the end were the sweetest words I have heard in a long time. Thank you for making this video and thank you for being here.

i love the fact you have a cooking section, i actually completely forgot it was a kenshi video

What a great and comprehensive overview of the game. Subscription earned. Thanks!

Fantastic story and video, super worth the comment for the algorithm! Also, loved the chunky boy at the ending

I like that the cooking segments are in ur gaming vids, it makes this channel unique.

I really liked your first kenshi video, this one is amazing!

Can't believe I slept on this video for as long as I did. Now I wanna binge all of your past stuff in a row too, you charming bastard.

Wasnt expectin a cooking segment. Subbed

Amazing narration and humor ! Earned a sub, cheers :)

Great video. the cooking session made me subscribe. What a cool thing to throw into your videos.

I thought I was hallucinating when I saw the thumbnail, the fact that you finished this series and in such masterful fashion is incredible. I commend you sir, and thank you for putting this art out into the world.
